🎯 Tips & Tricks
If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, check if there's a port or patch for True Storms, as the original was made for Oldrim.
Place True Storms after your main weather mod in your load order to ensure its sounds and textures take priority.
Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to easily enable/disable and manage compatibility patches.
